Direction and Distance Stops MCQ Quiz - Objective Question with Answer for Direction and Distance Stops - Download Free PDF

Given 

Sudeep starts from Point A and drives 3 km towards south.

He then takes a left turn, drives 4 km, turns right and drives 4 km.

He then takes a left turn and drives 3 km.

He takes a final left turn, drives 7 km and stops at Point P.

Then the movement of Sudeep is,

To reach Point A again from Point P, Sudeep needs to drive 7 km towards the West.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Given

Rajendra starts from point A and drives 9 km towards the north.

He then takes a left turn, drives 7 km, turns left and drives 11 km.

He then takes a left turn and drives 10 km.

He takes a final left turn, drives 2 km and stops at point P.

Then movement of Rajendra is,

Therefore, he should drive 3 km towards West to reach Point A again.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

Given:

Sundar starts from point A and drives 12 km towards the east.

 He then takes a left turn, drives 9 km, turns left and drives 13 km.

He then takes a left turn and drives 11 km.

He takes a final left turn, drives 1 km and stops at point P.

Thus, Sundar has to drive 2km north to reach point A.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

Step 1: Point A is 18 m to the east of Point B.

Step 2: Point B is 22 m to the north of Point C.

Step 3: Point D is 11 m to the west of Point C.

Step 4: Point E is 11 m to the south of point D.

Step 5: Point X is 29 m to the east of Point E.

Now the distance between Point A to Point X is same as sum of distance between Point D to Point E & Point B to Point C.

DE = 11 m and  BC = 22 m
DE + BC => 11 m + 22 m 

Therefore the distance between A and X is 33 m.

Hence, the correct answer is "33m".

Given:

 Misha starts from her home and goes straight for 2 km.

Then she turns right and goes for 3 km.

Finally, she turns left and goes for 2 km to reach the mall.

Thus, shortest distance between Misha’s home and the mall is 5 km.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

One morning, Chitrashi and Aryan sit facing each other.

• If the shadow of Aryan falls to the left of Chitrashi.

• Aryan is facing the South direction.

Hence, ‘South​’ is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is :-

Six houses, A, B, C, D, E and F, are situated in a colony.

D is 60 m south of E. F is 40 m south of B. A is 30 m north of E. F is 50 m east of A. C is 50 m west of B.

∴ Here, House C is located at 40m north with respect to A.

Hence, the correct answer is "40 m north".

1) Fiza is facing Northeast and Daksh sits to the immediate left of Fiza. So, Daksh faces Southeast.

2) Daksh sits opposite Jatin. This implies that Jatin faces Northwest.

3) Similarly, Fiza sits opposite Naman. This implies that Naman is facing Southwest.

Note: In a board game If a person facing South indicates that he is sitting in the Northern direction and is facing toward the South.

As per the given information;

distance between final point and Shop L = √(24² + 10²)

= √(576 + 100)

= √(676)

= 26 m

Direction: Shop L is in South West direction from the final point.

Hence, "26 metre, South west" is the correct answer.

Given:

The air distance between the Bank and his office is 125 m.

Formula Use:

(Hypotenuse)2 = Base2 + Height2

Calculation:

Suppose the distance covered by Mahesh initially towards the south is 'X' meters.

Now, According to the Pythagoras theorem,

(Hypotenuse)² = Base² + Height²

Here, 

Hypotenuse (AE) = 125 m

Base (OE) = 20 + 55 = 75 m

Height (AO) = X + 25 m

Therefore,

(AE)² = (OE)² + (AO)²

⇒ (125)² = (75)² + (X + 25)²

⇒ 15625 = 5625 + (X + 25)2

⇒ 15625 - 5625 = (X + 25)2

⇒ 10000 = (X + 25)2

⇒ $\sqrt{1}0000$ = X + 25

⇒ X + 25 = 100

⇒ X = 100 - 25

⇒ X = 75 m

Therefore, Mahesh walks 75m initially from the bank to the south direction.

Hence, the correct answer is 75m.

According to the given conditions,

X is 15 m to the east from his starting point.

The logic followed here is:-

1) A child went 90 feet in the west.

2) He turned right and went 20 feet.

3) Then again turned right and walked 30 feet.

4) Finally he turned south and went 100 feet.

Drawing the diagram according to the given information:

So, the total least between the starting point and endpoint is: 

$\sqrt{{80}^2+{60}^2}$  = $\sqrt{6400+3600}$ =$\sqrt{10000}$ = 100

Hence, '100 feet' is the correct answer.

According to given conditions,

So, B’s house is to the South-East of D’s house.

Hence, ‘South-East’ is the correct answer.

According to the question, we have to draw the path of Poonam

Now the starting point from the finishing point is in the South-west direction.

Distance2 = 202 + 482

Distance2 = 400 + 2304

Distance2 = 2704

Distance = 52 m

Hence, Option (3) is correct.

Confusion Points We have to find out the position of the starting point with respect to the ending point.

Hence, the answer would be southwest and not northeast.

Given,

At the time of sunrise, Diksha and Arpita are sitting in a park with their backs facing each other. If the shadow of Diksha falls to the right of Arpita.

So,

Here we see Arpita is facing South.

Hence, the correct answer is South.
